Adidas Solar Glide ST Review

The evolution of the Adidas Supernova Sequence series, the Adidas Solar Glide ST is a moderate stability trainer for long and easy miles.  I have run in the Sequence series before, but have always dislike the fit and heaviness of them.  The Adidas Solar Glide ST, while similar in classification, is a completely different shoe.   A new upper, a new addition of stability (solar propulsion rails) and a somewhat different sole design make for a new concept on cushioned stability.

Adidas Adizero Adios 4 Review

The Adidas Adizero Adios Boost 4 continues the tradition as one the most decorated distance racing shoes.  The 6th version of the Adios and 4th with Boost features a welcome upper change with a similar sole design.  The upper is a fantastic update that finally fixes the sizing issue and the forefoot fit.  The sole remains the same with a design that works well (but I still prefer the extended forefoot torsion system of the originals).

Saucony Guide ISO 2 Review

I always want to love Saucony.  I was one of the early adapters to the original Kinvara, running through 8-10 pairs before moving on to running in true racing flats.  I have run in a few Saucony trainers but two always stood out to me.  The Mirage and the Guide.  Both I had success with, although I always had some trouble with the narrow toe box.  The current iteration is the second generation of a massive upper change which I hoped would alleviate that issue while retaining that firmer and responsive Saucony ride (not referencing their neutral shoe).  Did the Guide ISO 2 live up to my hopes?  Surprisingly yes.
